The San Antonio Spurs dropped a thriller to third-place Memphis Grizzlies as they gave their division opponent a scare but fell a little short, 118-110. Though the good guys erased a 15-point deficit, there were no late-game heroics to help complete what would have been a fantastic comeback.
Devin Vassell paced the Silver and Black with 20 points off the bench, and Dejounte Murray registered his tenth triple-double of the season. Keldon Johnson and Jakob Poeltl added 18 points apeice. Ja Morant was unstoppable, and he led the Grizz with 41 points and eights assists.
